Yarn Along

Reading: I Capture the Castle, by Dodie Smith. I've been wanting to read this book for the longest time. I'm a little over a hundred pages in, and I'm loving it so far! :)

Knitting: Lady Marple, in Wool of the Andes (garnet heather colorway). My friend Carolynn and I are doing a little cardigan knit-along this month! We're knitting different patterns, but the goal is to motivate each other and end up with a couple of beautiful sweaters. Lady Marple is honestly like the perfect English granny sweater. :) It's rather addicting and I am really enjoying knitting it. {Project page}

I haven't heard of I Capture the Castle so will have to check it out.How fun to have someone to motivate you while you knit and what a great pattern toknit. I love the color you are using, it's going to be such a pretty sweater.

Me too! I've heard of people doing that, but I can't imagine it. :) Sometimes I even struggle with knitting while watching TV or a movie. I either end up doing a lot of pausing when I'm at a more complicated part of the knitting, or have to put down my knitting when I'm at a more exciting, engrossing part of the movie. :)
